Abstract

We propose a novel image super-resolution method from digital cinema to 8K ultra high-definition television using registration of wavelet multi-scale components with affine transformation. The proposed method features that an original image is divided into signal and noise components by the wavelet soft-shrinkage with detection of white noise level. The signal component enhances resolution by registration between a signal component and its wavelet multi-scale components with affine transformation and parameters optimization. The affine transformation enhances super-resolution image quality because it increases registration candidates. The noise component enhances resolution with power control considering cinema noise representation. Super-resolution image outputs by synthesis of super-resolved signal and noise components. Experiments show that the proposed method has objectively better PSNR measurement and subjectively better appearance in comparison with conventional super-resolution methods.
